Clubsport S discs

<< < (2/2)

colesey:
I think the CS discs come from the same supplier as the TT/RS 370mm ones and overheating on track from the wrong sided cooling vane is an issue on those cars.

exodus_ste:
Funnily enough, i think there is a wheel balance issue also. Only at 80-85 (on the Autobahn) does that show up as slight wheel wobble/vibration. Or perhaps that is also a warped disc causing some funny issues when at a higher speed?

For sure, for the price of the discs you'd expect a right and left! I'll ask AKS and see if they have had any other probems with this kit.

Thanks again guys

pudding:
Yeah, ~85mph is where I notice poor tyre balancing the most.

It could still be a warped disc, but wheel balancing is a cheap potential cause to eliminate in the meantime.

The disc handing thing is very weird.  I can't remember if there is an R or L stamped into mine, I'll have a look next time the wheels are off.  I can't believe the company who made them for VAG only make one side, so it must be an admin cock up at VAG somewhere.
